Installing the Fluid-O-Tech Pump Assembly
To install the pump assembly follow, these steps (see Figure 3):
1.
Slide the pump assembly, inlet side of the pump away from the
steam generator, into the mounting bracket and snap it into place.
Do not kink the teflon™ tube (9).
2.
Push the open end of the rubber inlet tube (6) extending from the
water reservoir on to the pump inlet fitting (7) as far as it will go.
Secure the tube to the fitting using a cable tie (4).
3.
Attach the compression nut (8) on the Teflon™ tube to the inlet
fitting (11) on top of the steam generator (10) finger tight. Tighten
this nut using a 3/8-inch wrench. Do not overtighten.
4.
Re-attach the diode plug (2) using the diode plug screw (1).
5.
A dielectric strength test (Hi-Pot) and a protective bonding
impedance test (ground continuity) must be performed on the
Statim unit.See Required Information, Tools and Routine
Maintenance.
6.
Make sure there is sufficient steam-process distilled water in the
reservoir and activate the pump using the Control Box for 5
seconds to ensure that the pump is functioning.
7.
Fasten one cable tie to each end of the pump mounting bracket.
8.
Run a sterilization cycle and observe all fittings and tubes for leaks.
Check LCD read-outs for messages indicating cycle status.
9.
Reinstall the cover. See STATIM Cover Removal and Replacement.
